bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2006 wow. I remember I used to intern for Fox Sports detroit back in 03, I was actually sitting there taping the last game where they just avoided the worst record ever. Its just so awesome to see em kicking some ass, even if they dont win the series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naiwf 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2006 lowly, pathetic, lucky to be here Tigres THEY WON NINETY-FIVE GAMES Â That doesn't matter in New Yawk. Most fans would have had you believe the Yankees were playing the Devil Rays' A affiliate. I'm telling you, people were calling up WFAN and asking what day the parade was scheduled for so they could be sure to take the day off to celebrate. Almost every Yankees fan I know personally was already counting this year as # 27 before the postseason even started. Granted, I didn't have high expectations for Detroit, but at the same time no other team's fans are that arrogant. Hell, the Mets are up 2-0 and I still don't know if we'll get by LA.

randomguy 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2006 Yeah, I don't get people at all. Â The Tigers had the best ERA in the AL, yet people said their pitching wasn't strong enough. The common wisdom is that pitching wins, yet everyone slept on the Tigers. Â In addition, the Yankees have one or at most two good startes. (Wang and Mussina) The rest of their rotation is crap. Total crap. Â This Tiger team is very similar to the Sox last year - you know those guys that won the WS. Good pitching that is pretty consistent throughout the rotation and enough hitting. Â Edit: Every year people say that the Yankees lineup is incredible, and every year they lose. For some reason the Yankees GM, as well as people in this thread, seem to think that neglecting pitching while stockpiling more bats works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey just wait until the ALCS if the Tigers win and we'll get constant yammerings about how the A's/Tigers is a battle of "Cinderella teams" and that they "weren't supposed to get here" like they are a couple of 16 seeds making it to the Final Four.

Justice 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2006 All this talk about Yankees fans reminds me of that Post-Season Baseball commercial where they are going around getting fans of the other teams out of hiding to watch the game.

lomasmoney 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2006 I am having too much fun with this right now....The Yankees look shook as hell. Now I have a tough choice... Game 4 tomorrow for 50 dollars or Michigan-MSU. I am so happy right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NYankees Report post Posted October 7, 2006 Well I called it and I was right about Kenny Rogers pitching a gem tonight against the Yankees. The Yankees have officially turned into the new Atlanta Braves. I want to personally say goodbye to Sheffield and Mussina who will both not be back next year. Hopefully Arod and Randy Johnson can join them and get the hell out of the Bronx because they are unwelcomed. Great game by the Tigers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, I'm a Wings fan and I've been to three times as many Tigers games than Wings. We've just been in hiding after having one of the most laughable teams in baseball for so long.  Верьте!

Guest Felonies! Report post Posted October 7, 2006 Oh, and I'd prefer to think of Detroit as a hockey town first and foremost, because God, some city in this godforsaken country has to be. Besides, you can say "x is really a y town" whenever a team stops sucking. They're doing it right now with the Bears, they'll do it with the Knicks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
